[lace-chat] Fwd: modal

On returning home, I was greeted by the following message from my son, 
sent a couple of days earlier (while I was in internet-limbo):

Subject: modal
I was out buying some clothes the other day (yes, this is your son), 
and I
ran into something that was 70% modal, 30% something else (cotton or 
silk,
I think).  What on earth is modal?  I tried looking it up online, but
couldn't get any good information.  The nearest I could tell, it's a 
brand
of rayon.  You know anything about it?
I've only heard the term (used this way) once before - in Prague, in 
reference to lacemaking thread - and "artificial fiber" was as close as 
I could figure out what it was. Lace-chat to the rescue, please?
